Step 1

Cook the quinoa as per packet directions. Set aside to cool.

Step 2

Transfer the Plant Boss crumbles to a medium bowl. Add 2 cups water and let soak for 3 minutes. Meanwhile, heat the oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the crumbles and cook for 15 to 20 minutes, or until all the water is absorbed, stirring occasionally.

Step 3

In a medium bowl, mix the hummus, pickle juice, paprika, and 2 tablespoons water. Press or grate the garlic into the bowl. Add maple syrup to taste. Adjust water to the desired consistency.

Step 4

Optional: Massage the kale with a drizzle of olive oil.
